No water shortage here. Saguaro Lake is at the 98% full level and boaters love it. All reservoirs on the Salt River are full. Yellow-flowered brittle bush plants cover the ground between the saguaros. After all, this IS a National Forest.
This is my largest pano yet, taken with a Gigapan EPIC and a modified bracket to hold a Canon EOS XTi with a 75-300mm zoom.
